Answer: a²+b² = -99/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given two equations, this equations will be solved simultaneously to get a² and b²
a³ - 3ab² = 47 ... 1
b³ - 3a² b = 52... 2
From 1, a(a² - 3b²) = 47...3
From 2, b(b² - 3a²) = 52... 4
Adding 3 and 4, we have;
a²+b²-3b²-3a² = 99 (note that a and b will no longer be part of the equations as they have been factored out)
a²+b²-(3b²+3a²) = 99
(a²+b²) -3(b²+a²)= 99
Taking the difference we have
- 2(a²+b²) = 99
a²+b² = -99/2
Answer:
C. 
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the expression 
First, note that

Find the discriminant

Now,

Write the factored form:

Hello! I can help you with this! So, you and 3 friends are 4 people. You split $536. To find the amount each of you got, Do division. 536/4 is 134. Each friend got $134 in the first month. You made 224 in 2 months. Let’s subtract to see how much more each of them got. 224 - 134 is 90. Now, multiply by 4 to find out how much profit was made. 90 * 4 is 360. The shop made $360 in the second month.
Seventy-six point twelve.
Answer:
85/7
Step-by-step explanation:
log2 + log7(x-5) = 2
log(14(x-5)) = 2
14x - 70 = 10²
14x = 170
x = 170/14
x = 85/7 or 12 1/7
